RESUMO
In milk, Streptococcus thermophilus displays two distinct exponential growth phases, separated by a nonexponential one, during which proteinase synthesis was initiated. During the second exponential phase, utilization of caseins as the source of amino acids resulted in a decrease in growth rate, presumably caused by a limiting peptide transport activity.
